the scene of some of the most brutal of syria's civil war fighting. it was once home to millions of residents but many of them fled as regime and opposition forces just started fighting block to block, one after the other. in fierce gun battles. while the government air strikes targeted the city's hospitals. just this week, we saw the rebels score a pretty direct hit. look at this. it was against a military helicopter. yeah, they just virtually blew it out of the skies over aleppo. that video was posted online before most of the internet and telephone service was made to fade to black right across syria. but now we're seeing residents actually return to that city of aleppo. there have been some real good advances by the rebels there that helped make that possible, but make no mistake, it is still far from safe there. arwa damon joins me now. what are you seeing in terms of any kind of progress that this opposition might be making in light of what is essentially a black hole to the rest of the world? >> reporter: you know, it's been quite fascinating g
